Description

Let me know your thoughts on the show and what topic you would like me to discuss next.The most dangerous misalignment doesn’t explode; it drifts. Careers accelerate, reputations solidify, and bank accounts grow while home life slips into management mode—efficient, coordinated, but emotionally thin. We shine a light on that quiet distance and talk candidly about why capable men tolerate personal drift far longer than they would ever allow professional drift on their teams.We start by naming the gap: the low-grade unease that surfaces during unstructured time, the struggle to recall the last weekend of true presence, and the way “it’s just a season” becomes a lifestyle. From there, we unpack the double standard that rules so many high performers. At work, drift is unacceptable, addressed early, and supported by advisors. At home, drift is understandable, explained away, and managed alone. We examine how leadership at home gets downgraded to logistics, how children become schedules instead of stories, and how spouses adapt to partial presence until resignation replaces hope.Then we get practical. We stress that alignment is not a reward for perfect timing; it is a standard upheld amid complexity. We offer sharp questions that force clarity: What have you called temporary that’s now normal? Where are you managing instead of addressing? Which leadership qualities you’re known for at work are absent at home? We show how climate forms—how unresolved tension sets the emotional temperature—and why outside perspective turns intention into calibration. Professionals seek coaching to win at work; serious men invite honest mirrors to win at life.If you’re ready to let your standards travel from boardroom to breakfast table, this conversation is your turning point.
